Another Tilted Door of XuanKong DaGua

Someone actually introduced us to the owner of this shop who has engaged a XuanKong DaGua door tilting method grandmaster to hasten auspiciousness. Close to a year, nothing happens. Maybe the BaZi has an issue overriding XKDG. We don't know.

A close inspection revealed that the door is tilted the other way round in respect of the incoming Qi mouth. Strange? Supposed XKDG is part of SanYuan, why wouldn't the fundamental of SanYuan principles be applied? Similarly so, the shop is located facing the higher land with its back towards the lower land. Something liked, backward riding the dragon, some may called.

This is not something new and it will not be the last one. Wonder what is wrong with XKDG or rather in its application.

The common understanding of XKDG in an nutshell theory is: -
To achieve what is known as singular pure Hexagram or YiGua ChunQing. To do this, one has to match the Heaven, Earth and Human DaGua. So, considering such 2 approaches can be achieved: -

1.    Dragon matching water
2.    Sitting matching facing

Here is the interesting part. Dragon and water is presumably fixed, because the environment cannot be changed to suit the building. In the host and guest principles, the environment becomes the host, the building is the guest. So, the building has to suit the environment. We believed this is where the applications has gone so wrong as Dragon matching Water is referring to the main source of Qi in a greater TaiQi. These set the first principle whereas the other sets the application. Here, the question is where is the greater TaiQi, the greater BaGua? How do we measure it?

So, what is left is sitting matching facing. One peculiar school of thought suggested that sitting and facing refers to the location (sitting) and facing of the main door. The main entrance door becomes the point of reference. Why not the sitting and facing of the building instead? What governs the smaller TaiQi instead? What is meant by the Threshold of Yin and Yang? 

Again, the understanding becomes crucial. If we were to take the building as a containment and say the main door is where the Qi comes in matching heaven, earth and man, we have again make a wrong assumption, as Qi comes in all directions and not one direction. So, why do we tilt the door instead of some other things liked, the roof, the window, the stove, the bed and so forth?

What if XKDG is just another hoax
